The real criminals are in parliament, yes Mr. Munroe?
Mr. Munroe, you are reading the papers, yes?
The people are as worried about the real crimes taking this country down.
PLP is a criminal organization according to every scandal that has hit the international news.
How's that voice note investigation going?
How about the Nygard scandal? Nygard was convicted in Canada. What about here?
What is it we're lacking in the national security arena? Brains or ethics? It is one or the other.

Michael Pintard, the FNM leader, in a statement, while not naming Sir Baltron, said: “This court document presents a compelling case for an immediate investigation by the Bahamian government into payments made by foreign actors to Bahamian officials to influence government policy and decisions. Such allegations tarnish the reputation of The Bahamas as a credible and legitimate place to conduct business."

Sorry Mr. Pintard, there is no reputation of The Bahamas as a credible and legitimate place to conduct business anymore. That disappeared long time ago now. The real question is will justice be done. If some of these senior PLP officials do not end up in jail, very likely including the PM, this country is finished. We know what happened. It is there in black and white. Our justice system failed years ago. Hope? Sorry, I have none.

Porcupine says...

Coming up soon, it may be supposed that the PM will become a flight risk, yes?
Only so long a semi-intelligent person can claim ignorance to all of the shenanigans going on under one's nose. Even, in the best of circumstances.

And, perhaps make sure all islands have adequate hurricane shelters before the government spends millions of dollars flying around this country for photo ops and contracts for clinics that never get finished.
We are a country of nearly 400,000 people, about the size of Miami.
Anyone know who the mayor of Miami is?
Get my point? Sit small PLP politicians and fix the problems in front of your noses.

With all due respect Diver, if the US imposed the same sanctions against The Bahamas, we would be in a much, much, much worse state than they. Much worse.
The US presently has 30% of the world's people under sanctions.
What for?
Same reason they have killed millions and millions of innocent people around the world in our lifetimes.
Just like they are funding the war in Ukraine and Israel's genocide of the Palestinians.
Before we blame Venezuela politics, we should do some more research on what these sanctions really entail.
At the very least, we would call them patently unChristian if we actually did our own research instead of relying on the billionaire's mainstream media.

Porcupine says...

Of course this is only about the CCA, and no decent Bahamian politician had anything to do with it.
Wow, for a minute there I though this would make The Bahamas look bad.

Porcupine says...

You are absolutely 100% correct.

Porcupine says...

Yup. Lord Acton. "Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely."
Thanks for that.

Porcupine says...

If the government wished for transparency and honesty they would simply hire an accountant to go over every line item from every "contract".
That they do not should show any thinking person that they do not care.
A less charitable person would suggest it must be because they are in on the "deal".

Porcupine says...

Understood. But, aren't we being led into the same "divide and conquer" trap that they want us in?
I don't give a damn what color a criminal is, they all need to go.
Bottom line is that the criminals have taken over this country. Any arguments here?
The bankers and financiers and web shop owners in this country, no matter their color, are doing just fine, yes?
If there is an honest person willing to lead in The Bahamas, no matter their color, they should be welcomed.
Where are they? The criminals control every aspect of this country.
How's the voice note investigation going?
